1985: Sinclair FM Wristwatch Radio
smartwatch history

A damn shame that this never made it past the prototype stage, this monster from the British company behind the massively successful ZX Spectrum, working alongside watch specialist Timex, had three separate sections: an LCD watch, piezoelectric speaker and FM tuner, along with a battery compartment in the clasp. It was cancelled as a result of Sinclair's financial woes, with only 11,000 being produced.

1982: Seiko TV Watch
As worn by James Bond in Oc*****sy, this 'smart' watch needed an adapter and a whopping great receiver box in order to show grainy TV images below the digital time display. It cost about £500 and your TV action was presented in ten shades of grey. That's not a softcore p***o, that's the display.

1972: Pulsar
Fifty years later the first all-electric digital watch arrived, from the Hamilton Watch Company, wrapped up in 18-carat gold. It boasted LEDs and you had to push a button to see the time. A bargain at $2,100 back in 1972.

1927: Plus Four Wristlet Route Indicator
There's no GPS built into this absolute beaut from the 1920s, but it would still help you get from A to B. Simply slot in the scroll map cartridge for your set route (London to Bournemouth sounds lovely) and away you go. Sure, you have to do some manual k**b turning, but at least you didn't have to charge it every night.
